We are Running Out

Help me give my students a replenish of supplies we use daily. I am down to my last ream of art paper! Our Posca markers are dried up! There are no more wipes for emergency hand washing.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

In general, we just need a replenish of art and classroom supplies. It is easy to run out when you teach 1,000 students K-8 and most of your supplies are consumables.

I am also asking for Legos for my kindergarten students.

I see my kinders for a full hour, which is a long time for this age, so I like to end the class with some creative building toys. We have been using some connecting toys I found in the dollar bins at Target ( which they love), but I will be excited to give them the option of Legos too.

This built in play time helps with fine motor skills, problem-solving and spatial awareness, and is also an time to practice social skills as students often pair up to play.
